Help, removing tung oil stain
 

I'll never learn. I was wearing my new shirt when applying tung oil on a
wooden box mounted on the lathe. Then too late some of it went on my new
shirt. ;--(( The probabilities of removing the stain is remote. However,
some of you may have a magic way of removing it. Any help or comments would
be appreciated.

Dennis, you might consider doing the whole shirt in tung oil, and wearing it
as rain gear.

Well, since I have been told that LDD use is only effective in anecdotal
situations, I have been so crushed that I didn't dare raise Denis' hopes.
Anecdotally speaking (ahem!), I can only advise that it does work for
taking
tung oil out of tuxedos ("smoking" en français); however, that was only
one
time and I have not turned formally since!*G*

You turn in a tuxedo? Blimey, I'm dead impressed!

I once turned in a chenille jumper. Then I found out just how tenaciously
wood shavings can cling to fabric!

====Hmmmh? Giles are you referring to a sleeveless dress worn over a
blouse or sweater or a pullover sweater. As to the tuxedo, I was referring
to it anecdotally speaking, therefore, it may or may not be true since I
didn't do a scientific study of it.*G*

Now I have graduated for tung oil stains to Gorilla glue.
The old rag shirt I wore most of the time is immune against stains.
Every-time I wear a new shirt it becomes stained. So I concluded that to
avoid stains is to wear my old rag shirt. ;--)
BTW to remove dried tung oil from eyes' glasses or shield the best way is to
use alcohol swabs or simply rubbing alcohol known as Isopropyl because it
contains a very small quantity of oil.
